CoreControl from
CoreCool.co.uk offers INSTANT gains of 20-50% in strength & stamina and
unmatched longer term conditioning even for sports people already at 'peak'
fitness.

How? Intense exercise
rapidly heats up the muscles and then the body core which impairs
physical performance and causes fatigue. The enzyme MPK, needed in muscles, deforms increasingly as temperature rises. When cooled with CoreControl this enzyme re-stabilises plus more blood is supplied to working muscles instead of being diverted to the skin to lose heat which gives the heart less work. With the extra blood, lower heart rate and critically - the lower temperature stabilising the MPK, athletes find they can train and compete much harder and longer.

No ice:
Iced water, ice cold towels etc
actually have the opposite effect because the extreme cold causes peripheral arteries to
constrict, moving blood away from the skin, preventing heat loss and actually raising
your core temperature! CoreControl uses the pulling pressure of a 'slight vacuum'
to widen the hand's
arteries, increasing blood volume and cools the blood (at a minimum of 10
degrees) which is supplied directly to the overheating muscles and organs that need it. Simple -
brilliant.

Detailed studies
over several years
have proven that only
the combination
of the vacuum and controlled
cooling gives
dramatic performance improvements,cooling alone
has no such effect.
No other method can provide the clear results that CoreControl offers. Personal bests on the first time of
using it are regularly recorded,it has to become the
'must have' standard across ALL sport.

The recorded data from
the years of trials stands up to the closest scrutiny and Doctors
Dennis Grahn and H. Craig Heller who developed CoreControl and conducted the trials at
Stanford University, a renowned seat of learning, put their name and
considerable reputation behind CoreControl and its sporting performance gains.
The huge gains are there for all to see, no matter how fit you think you are.

The elegant muscle

But what does overheating have to do with
fatigue in the first place?

Much of the lab’s recent research can be
summed up with Grahn’s statement that “temperature is a primary limiting
factor for performance.” But the researchers were at a loss to understand
why until recently.

In 2009, it was discovered that muscle pyruvate
kinase, or MPK, an enzyme that muscles need in order to generate chemical
energy, was highly temperature-sensitive. At normal body temperature, the
enzyme is active but as temperature rises, some of the enzyme begins to deform
into the inactive state. By the time muscle temperatures near 104 degrees
Fahrenheit, MPK activity completely shuts down.

There’s a very good biological reason for
this shutdown. As a muscle cell increases its activity, it heats up. But if
this process continues for too long, the cell will self-destruct. By shutting
itself down below a critical temperature threshold, MPK serves as an elegant
self-regulation system for the muscle.

“Your muscle cells are saying, “You can’t
work that hard anymore, because if you do you’re going to cook and
die,’” Grahn says.

When you cool the muscle cell, you return the
enzyme to the active state, essentially resetting the muscle’s state of
fatigue.

In further summary:

When the body is put through intense exertion a
lot of heat is created, fatigue sets in and strength, endurance and cognitive
function deteriorate. Hot conditions magnify this problem. The
nearer to their optimum temperature the better muscles and nerves
perform so heating up has detrimental effects, limiting muscle performance no
matter how fit you are. To lose heat
blood is diverted to the surface of the skin but in doing so less blood is
supplied to the working muscles and core organs. This means less oxygen and
nutrients get to these parts than is ideal. The heart also has to work harder
to pump this blood further. In treadmill trials recorded heart rate was considerably
lower using CoreControl - see conditioning
science
page for the graph.

ICE DOES NOT WORK Cold or iced water cannot get through the
body's layers of tissue to the core and also, in reaction to the cold, the surface arteries
constrict shunting blood away from the skin, actually preventing heat loss and
raising core temperature further! CoreControl cools the amplified blood
supplied to the palm which cools the body from the core out, the body
then diverts less blood to the skin surface and supplies more directly to the
working muscles
and core organs. This means the muscles can do
more work because they have more oxygen and energy and they actually perform better
with the temperature lowered back to its optimum by the cooler blood.

RESULTS Athletes are finding using CoreControl they can do more reps, run longer, faster
or lift more than previously. This extra
work brings all kinds of sporting benefits. What athlete would not love to see
even the slightest improvement in their fitness, speed, power, strength and
stamina? 20-50% is huge. 50%
improvements in treadmill power running at Leeds Rugby. Used during competition it slows down fatigue and can
be the winning factor. Those fully incorporating CoreControl into their
regimes have a big advantage over those who do not. On their first trial,personal bests were recorded in
the gym for a number of international rugby players who thought (along with
their conditioners) they were already at their strongest.One England
player improved his 6 rep, supersets bench press PB by a huge 15KG or 33lbs.Even illegal
steroids can not give results like this.

THINK QUICKER Athletes have reported that when using
CoreControl theythought more clearly
too. Because of CoreControl the brain is receiving more blood and oxygen and
is cooler so cognitive function is improved. You
think quicker! Speed of thought is a massive factor in all sport. In the last
stages of a close contest if one athlete/player is feeling fresher and thinking more
clearly than their opponent it is a huge advantage. There is also evidence
from its uses with MS that internal cooling helps heat blocked nerve axons to
conduct their signal.

REDUCE OR TOTALLY PREVENT CRAMP CoreControl helps
prevent injuries caused directly by fatigue such as torn or strained muscles
due to cramp. Dehydration and loss of electrolytes through sweating causes
fatigue and cramp. Because the body's temperature is lowered by CoreControl it needs to
sweat less, retaining vital water and electrolytes! It should be used as a
standard part of the warm down routine - with the extra flow of blood
to the muscles more metabolic waste products (cramp causing lactic acid for
example) are removed.

TRIAL:-More
tests, trials, data and statistics have been recorded than you can shake a
stick at. See the video and conditioning
science page for statistics, graphs etc. Clear
results are seen on the very first time of use, even personal bests are common.
For those who still wish to see it first hand we offer a
trial in a discipline where you have previous, quantified results. Contact us below
if you wish to arrange a trial. Depending on distance and the time involved
there may be a charge for this.

"CoreControl is used during games and two-a-day practices for 2-3
minutes or as needed. It has reduced and/or eliminated cramping and seems to
have a calming effect on players. During our game against Florida 3 years ago
it was about 94 degrees out with a heat index of 110 degrees or more. We were
behind 23-3. I felt that CoreControl helped maintain them through the game and
helped us win that game."
